“Status?” the Ghost demanded.
“He needs more convincing.”
“Use leverage. Anything. Make him cooperate. We have lots of friends in that part of China. The triads and others are in our pocket. They’ll give you a hand, if necessary.”
Good help’s hard to come by these days.
“What’s your plan? You can’t possibly be thinking of using his notes. We don’t have the capability to make any kind of biological weapon. Besides, the Chinese government wouldn't take kindly to you appropriating their research.”
“That’s not your concern. Get it done.” The Ghost hung up.
She had plans for the notes. For one, they would be her leverage—in case she failed in her attempt to escape justice again.
The Ghost couldn’t shake the memory of the video she’d
seen only a few days prior. The footage, secretly recorded in a hidden laboratory in China, showed the horrifying effects of the experimental bioweapon on test subjects. As the scientist in the video promised, the effects were a combination of smallpox, cholera, and Ebola. The mortality rate was one hundred percent
if the antidote wasn’t administered within the first forty-eight hours. The scientist claimed anyone exposed to it would die within forty-eight to ninety-six hours, depending on the individual, if not given the antidote soon enough. The video had been a gruesome testament to the power of the bioweapon, and the Ghost knew that the weapon was something she needed to have
in her arsenal.
She sat at her desk shuddering at the thought of the
suffering she had witnessed, but she couldn’t let her emotions cloud her judgment. She needed that threat to be her bargaining chip, if necessary.
